Musescore 2.0 Crashes upon Paste

• Apr 28, 2015 - 22:20

Okay, so I haven't had trouble with this until last night. I want the ending of this arrangement to end how it started. I already have repeats on the bars that need to be there--one where it actually repeats and one that repeats the whole thing. After the whole song repeats(it's a very repetitive song) I want the beginning to replay, but only to the first repeat, so I figured I'd just copy the beginning and paste it to the end, right?
Every time I go to do so, I can copy it without problems. When I try to paste, however, there is a Runtime Error that says that Musescore wants to close in an unusual way.
Also, while I'm here, I should add that Musescore is INCREDIBLY slow. I won't "Respond" to anything until almost a minute afterwards. It happens constantly...

Sorry to bug everyone.

Sounds like something is very wrong with your particular score, but we can't really help unless you post it here and give us precise step by step instructions to reproduce the problem. Normally, copy and paste works just fine, and unless the score is like thousands of measures long, it shouldn't take a minute to to respond.

I am posting this comment here, althought perhaps not strictly related. I am experiencing crashing on paste of notes in Musescore 2.0.

In my case, I am trying to write a score with different time signatures in different parts. The score is generally in 2/4. One instrument is in 6/8. I added this time signature by crtl-drag to the first measure of this instrument.

After entering a few bars of notes in the 6/8 instrument, I copied them, and then tried to paste into the same instrument a few bars later -- result is a crash. This is with a brand new score just being entered.

Oh wait, except, in this case, maybe it *is* possible to help even without the score. You say "one instrument is in 6/8" and mention ctrl+drag - I guess are using the experimental new "local time signature" feature that allows you to have different timr signatures at the same time in different staves? It is indeed a known issue that copy and paste within local time signatures leads to corruption which in turn could easily lead to crashes indeed. See #51626: Copy/paste to/from passage with local time signatures produces corruption..

I'm suddenly having this problem of the software slowing down to a CRAWL. Whereas I used to be able to type lyrics quickly, now it seems to take the software FOREVER to let me type them! Then, like the above comment, it started CRASHING completely whenever I tried to do a simple copy and paste on 2 measures. Before, I could copy and paste whole sections of the score {all instruments} without ANY problems. Now, suddenly, it won't even copy and paste 2 measures without crashing. Just like Jacob.pritt2 says, it copies without a problem, but, "When I try to paste, however, there is a Runtime Error that says that Musescore wants to close..."
I've restarted my computer and turned off ALL other apps that were running and it STILL did this, so I think it HAS to be the software, not my computer. Sorry, but if you know how to fix this problem, it's a REAL pain in the neck, so PLEASE let us know! Thanks.
